David's going on a Mission to.....................


Denver North Mission....He leaves on November 3rd and we are so excited for him. I have to post just how getting his mission call went that Thursday morning.   We were leaving on Thursday morning to go to Park City for the Point 2 Point bike race.  All calls in Vegas arrive in Thursdays mail, but we really wanted to get on the road early because Brads family had planned a party that evening for us.  We found out from a note in the mail box to the carrier, that mail is delivered about noon, but she gave us a number for the Post Office, to call and see if they could pull it and we would pick it up.  Brad called and the woman on Wednesday morning said that if should not be a problem, but to call back the following morning and see what they can do...so we called Thursday...car packed (in hopes that this would go down)  and the call to the Post Office that morning was not as hopeful.  The gentleman said that it would almost be impossible to do that, but to call back in about an hour. 

Brad, being Brad, could not wait, so he and David got in the car and drove to the Post Office to see if they would have more luck standing there, and they were Successful!!!!!  They walked in the door with the large white envelope, which within held the future of David's next two years.  

We were going to get in the car and arrive in Utah and with Sammi there, open the envelope, but we could not wait...so with Sam on speaker phone David opened his call!!  Colorado will be wonderful for him.
